She's batsh!t crazy.

First of all instead of calling roll like a normal professor or passing around a sheet, we have to fill out an index card with all of our information on it. (Cell phone, birthday, personal email, home address), and out every class date on the back and then at the beginning of class we have to get up and circle the date on the back.

-___-

Then, if someone asks how we are doing we can't say "I'm good or I've been good." because when we say "I" we are invoking the name of The Lord and The Lord is the only one who is good.

And don't get me started on her persnickety comments when you get an answer wrong.

We are now FIVE WEEKS into the semester and we have yet to learn anything pertaining to the course (African American Lit) but please ask me how hot and cold it gets in the Kalahari desert. I know all about that.

Oh, and I just happened to wear my #88 t-shirt to class and she told me that I was a fool for watching that non-sport. (But yet you knew what it was -___-)



Someone console me for these next 2.5 months cause I might jump off a cliff.
 
Just nutty then I guess. :confused: But she's the boss. Ya just hafta do it or fail.
 
My daughter is a EMS instructor. At the first class she passes out the syllabus and informs them that politics, religion and personal problems don't enter the classroom.

Is your daughter interested in teaching African American English?
 
Had problems like that when I was in school too. Found that there's not much you can do about it, so play along and avoid ever taking one of that professor's classes again.
Even if they don't have tenure, they usually have friends amongst the Deans and department heads. They determine your grade, and I found they can even violate the student handbook and their friends will help them look good and you look bad. So if it's only a couple more months just bear with it.

You can file complaints with the department head, but I'd wait until after the class is over and your grade is registered. It is true that it is fraud if you aren't getting your money's worth, but hard to prove. We managed to get one bad prof removed and another placed on sabbatical, but nothing got done to repair the damage to our scholastic records. After I graduated they brought the guy back from sabbatical and made him the new department head! And they wonder why they can't get any alumni donations from me?
 
I dont even write a bad evaluation on post class surveys. That they only get to read a month after the final grades have been entered.
I dont want to burn any bridges.
I have noted who I think is the best professser and why. I also comment positively on every postive attribute of every professser.
If I have nothing good to say, I just dont say.

I might be more candid on a post graduate survey provided that the professer isnt associated with any similar future professional disciplines.

I think some college is a test of your ability to wade thru the BS and sort out the real or the priorities. Kind of like life as well.

We have to submit our research work on to a frigging portfolio that is idiotic and the most user unfriendly software I have ever encountered. Applying Electronic Theorims/ making sense of it and conveying the thoughts on a spreadsheet has about run me insane. Putting it on a hateful worthless portfolio is wasted time I will never get back. It is a just because they say so thing.

But even in professional life there will be many confrontations with BS. I have been the BS myself, especially in my younger days. Pick your battles carefully you can only fight a few at a time.

I know this doesnt make her BS any more tolerable.

I would ask her to teach me voodoo. Then make a professor doll.
 
Record a class and then post it on YouTube, share it on social media, and send it to a media outlet. No way your University will keep that professor on-board once the media s*** storm hits them.

Also, the next time you say "I" and she tells you to stop since it is invoking the name of the Lord, tell her you are invoking the Lord to smite her. And then cite a Biblical passage that shows how her actions are very un-Christian-like.

Being a bit goofy is one thing but insulting an Earnhardts profession is another thing entirely

WE HAVE A WINNER!

2 days after graduating, the alumni assoc at UTA called asking for $150. I told them where I thought 15,000 pennies would be better placed at. Between working for the school in 2 places, dealing with the unrealisic department heads and advisors and faculty, you name it, I just wanted to get out of that egotistical "we do nothing wrong and you're stupid" campus.

And I'm not the only one.

After thinking, meditation, fasting, and prayer I have come to the conclusion that she doesn't deserve to live.

There has to be someway to mess with her. Conspire with class mates to drive her crazy. Do good work but maybe everyone needs to do something that annoys the crap out of her.

I dont get the I thing as in profaning the Lord. She sounds stupid, I am not aware any codes of conduct that would forbid the use.
I would offend her on that repeatedly. It is too stupid to enforce and it will make her look like an Ass if she tried to discipline on those grounds

Getting the class to chant to her: I I (repeatedly) etc ..to the tune of kum by ya would be good.
